Here
we are already at another Six Sunday Links. Before you drag yourself out of bed for
laundry and grocery shopping and all the other chores you couldn’t bear to do
on a Saturday, check out these articles, videos and photos that entertained me
this week.

1) I am beyond obsessed
with these Amy Schumer videos – which point out major issues with women’s self
image/body issues/dieting/exercise etc. in a completely HYSTERICAL way.

Nutritionist "I can tell by looking you're not the least you can be."Compliments "Little? I'm like a size 100 now. Anyway, I paid like $2 for it, it's probably made out of old Burger King crowns. I look like a whore locked out of her apartment."

“I have a platform where I can motivate
and inspire," Hart said. "What better way to do that than running?
Running is something that everybody can do, all over the world, regardless of
race, shape or size. It brings people closer together."

4) Anthony Bourdain is
planning to open a GIANT food market on Pier 57 that dwarfs Chelsea Market. It
will be modeled after an Asian street market – meaning it will be open all
hours with tons of interesting stalls. Sometime it’s a little ridiculous the
number of food-focused spaces there are in NYC. Between Smorgasburg, Flea
Markets, Eataly, Chelsea Market, City Kitchen, Brookfield Place and outdoor spaces like
Madison Square Eats and Penn Plates – I think it takes away from the excitement
of them when you can now get an Arancini Rice Ball not just at Smorgasburg but
at about a million stalls around the city. But it doesn’t seem like a trend
that will be slowing down any time soon – so bring it Bourdain!

6) Last but not least, a
friend posted this photograph titled “Generational Differences” and it really
made me stop and think for a minute. Before returning to Instagram on my phone…No
but really. It’s a pretty strong image, especially after that “sorority girlsat the baseball game” fiasco this week.

Who of us hasn't considered how our peers will react to our performance in a given race, whether good or bad? And in those moments, whom are we ultimately running for? The sport is difficult enough as it is; doing it for anyone but ourselves makes it unsustainable.
